Im looking at changing my Superflow PSU to a Seasonic
The reason being due to Superflow using their own non-standard patented connector types. I'm wanting to get a custom set of cables made so Superflower requires doner cables and they are timeconsuming for the person making them
i was thinking about future proofing as eventually in the next few years i want to go to 4K 144Hz gaming so i was thinking 850w. Some PSU calculators show 1000w for the likes of 5950x and 6900xt / 6 case fans / wc loop items like pump.
Im guessing as generations go on in the components the efficiency will also increase so theoretically 850w should be surface
The ones im considering are the following
Seasonic FOCUS GX 1000 Watt Full Modular 80+ Gold PSU/Power Supply - £160 aprox
Seasonic Focus PX 850 850W Modular 80+ Platinum PSU/Power Supply - £145 aprox
850W Seasonic Focus GX 850 80PLUS Gold, Single Rail, Fully Modular, 70A, 120mm Fan, ATX PSU - £125 aprox
With the 10year warranty i dont mind spending a decent bit of money as i intend to keep it.
I will be getting the 5600x soon and also looking to get a 6700xt once released - would the other option be just get a nice 600-650w unit and then rebuy a psu down the line incase there is a major improvement when i go to upgrade the other in future.
Some advise would be greatly appreciated
